I've read the discussion about gasmasks and would like to add some info on this :

The price depends on a lot of factors :

Is the mask complete, is the cannister complete, which date, are the straps original to the cannister (and are the leather reinforcements present) , are the cleaning cloth and spring present, etc etc
Very important : Is the mask matching to the cannister, is there a name / Feldpost number present -> to which unit did the gasmask belong. (this gets a much higher price).

And I'm not even talking about the cammo story........ cammoed gasmask cannisters are a real minefield.....

As you can see a lot of variables....... so it is not possible to give a straight price for a gasmask with cannister........

For a matching one I'd say around 100 - 150 €, but like i said, just a indication
